    Calling the fact that people are losing jobs and can’t heat their homes fear mongering is precisely what makes people on the left look like clowns. People see their material conditions deteriorate and they listen to people who talk about their problems.

    It is better to accept that these outmoded industries are going the way of the dodo and work on better alternatives to make sure the people left unemployed by this long overdue structural change are not left standing in the rain.

    What exactly are these alternatives, I’ve seen none proposed. All I see is hand waving and dismissing the problems as fear mongering.

        Famously pro EU ones, check notes… anarchists? Wait no, at least some of them are apparently pure socialchauvinists.

            “Unity is a great thing and a great slogan. But what the workers’ cause needs is the unity of Marxists, not unity between Marxists, and opponents and distorters of Marxism.”

            ― Vladimir Lenin

      You are aware that you are just repeating the right-wing neo-liberal TINA paradigm?

      What level of cognitive dissonance can one have to spout such non-sense and the same time claim to be a “communist”?

        Imagine not being able to comprehend the concept of material conditions. I guess that’s what it takes to be an anarchist.
